Chapter 465: Elementary Swordsmanship

Every set of swordsmanship had a level rating next to it. This was a label added by the teacher so that they could better choose the appropriate swordsmanship. This teacher was quite thoughtful.

Swordsmanship was not the ultimate goal, but a secondary process to supplement training and learning. In fact, Xiao Lin did not care much about what sort of swordsmanship he chose, and from the labels, the highest level of these was only Black-Iron or Bronze in rank. In other words, these were routines that would be obsolete sooner or later.

Therefore, Xiao Lin’s focus was still on the effects of these swordsmanship studies. For example, certain types of swordsmanship could enhance the flexibility of the body, and certain types could improve reflexes. With the continuous improvement of attributes, for Black Iron-ranks, each attribute actually provided meaningful empowerment.

Xiao Lin studied carefully from start to finish, and then again from the last page to the front. He pondered for a long time before raising his head and saying to the teacher enthusiastically, “Um, these routines all look really useful, and they should be a big help to my learning process. I will learn them all.”

“Sure, then you can choose… Huh?” The teacher was a gentle-looking man, and his smiling face froze in an instant, his eyes wide. “What, what did you say?”

“I will learn them all.” Xiao Lin thought for a moment, and added confidently. “No, I can’t say that. Anyway, I will learn as much as I can.”

“That, that… But…” The man felt that his brain was overheating.

“Can’t we choose multiple swordsmanship specialties?” Xiao Lin’s eyes fluttered innocently.

“There are no such rules.”

“Oh, then thank you, Teacher.” Xiao Lin had always been polite in front of these senior teachers.

“…”

The man’s mouth hung open. He wanted to remind Xiao Lin that there were no such rules because no one would ever choose all the specialties. Human energy was limited, especially with courses in the second half of the semester being so tight. Where would he find the time to learn it all?

However, this man also had his sources of information, and he knew that Xiao Lin had the privilege to freely attend classes. If Xiao Lin was determined to be that way, he really could not stop him.

After a short break, the course continued.

Compared to the fiery woman who taught last semester, this man’s swordsmanship course was more laid back. It was uncertain if it was some kind of authorization from the student union, or it was just this man’s personal teaching style, but it was almost like a free-for-all style of learning. After splitting up several sets of swordsmanship moves for demonstration, he left them to practice on their own. Only after an hour or so, the man would return to simply check on their progress.

However, for a few elite students, he conducted holistic and comprehensive individual lessons. In addition to a few monitors, there were also a few ordinary students with a relatively high strength attribute value.

The first set of swordsmanship that Xiao Lin learned was called Total Annihilation. This set of swordsmanship was actually developed independently by Dawn Academy after they integrated Norman Swordsmanship, and was very suitable for freshmen courses.

“This set of sword moves is the most effective sword technique when you find yourself surrounded by your enemies. It damages in an area of effect. If you possess sword aura, it can also cause large-scale damage. It is a very practical skill on the battlefield, but pay attention to the timing of the release, because it requires an obvious charging time before use. Also, it does not differentiate between friend or foe, so you must be cautious. I don’t want to see you killing your own allies on the battlefield!”

The teacher’s explanation was very detailed, and the elites were listening very carefully. Earlier, Chen Yu mentioned something about building an Elite Club, and the planning for this was actually already underway. If there were no surprises, apart from a few monitors, they would definitely only select from the best students. The relatively outstanding ordinary students would inevitably have a deep desire to surpass the monitors.

“It looks like we’re all using the same approach,” Cheng Ming took advantage of the teacher’s brief pause, left his post, and joked softly to Xiao Lin.

“I fell in love with this Total Annihilation skill the moment I saw the introduction. No question, even the name sounds domineering!”

Xiao Lin’s face twitched slightly. He wanted to explain that he did not choose this sword move just because of its name. However, after thinking about Cheng Ming’s simplemindedness, he simply agreed.

Several elites actually did not only choose a single sword move, and they also occasionally engaged in chit-chat to inquire about the sword moves. The highest number of sword moves that were chosen were four, which was the limit of their learning ability.

The more sword skills digested in a short period of time, the more obvious it would be for the improvement of basic attributes. However, if it took too long to learn a certain sword move, it would not be worth the time lost when it could be used to learn other sword skills. These people naturally understood this basic reasoning, and thus they chose according to their abilities. Due to this, when they learned that Xiao Lin was going to learn 20 sets of sword skills, everyone thought he was an idiot.

Xiao Lin had long learned to ignore what others thought of him. In fact, he put a lot of effort and time into it. The Elementary Swordsmanship course had three classes a week, and each class lasted the entire morning. In addition, Xiao Lin devoted a lot of his spare time to this.

Total Annihilation was not a sword skill of high difficulty. Of the 20 sets of sword skills provided by the teacher, it was the lowest level. As long as he was able to upgrade Elementary Swordsmanship to around level two, he would be able to learn it. This was not really a challenge for Xiao Lin.

Three days later, in the final Elementary Swordsmanship course of the week, he demonstrated the entire set of Total Annihilation swordsmanship moves in front of several monitors and teachers. The speed of his learning shocked everyone speechless.

Did he master a set of swordsmanship moves in three days?

Even Cheng Ming, who had the Swordheart talent, could not do this. He claimed to have only mastered 60% to 70% of this set of swordsmanship. As for the others, it was even more unbearable. With no matching talent, they had only barely started on the three-day course.

“Well, the difficulty of this set of swordsmanship is indeed relatively low.” The teacher laughed dryly, and they did not know if this was to comfort himself or for the students.

After that, Xiao Lin logically started to learn the second set of swordsmanship on his own, and it was called Broken Strike. After the teacher overcame his brief shock, the basic movements of this set of swordsmanship were also taught very seriously.

There were very few swordsmanship moves in Broken Slash. This set of moves was very modest, its power not very great, its area of effect not very large, and the sword moves not very quick. However, the biggest benefit of Broken Strike was its adaptability. No matter how bad the environment was, the user could rely on this set of swordsmanship anytime and anywhere.

It was also due to the simplicity of this set of swordsmanship, Xiao Lin decided to not waste any more time. Therefore, after working diligently to memorize the essential movements, he planned to practice them on his own on the weekends.
